Residential treatment is for individuals who have not been successful in outpatient treatment or who as a result of an evaluation, are appropriate for a more intense, 24 hour/day treatment experience.

Residential treatment is a type of service that includes 24-hour professionally directed evaluation, care, and treatment for addicted clients in chronic distress whose addiction is demonstrated by a severe impairment of social, occupational, or school functioning. Depending on the needs of the particular individual, rehabilitation is a key treatment goal.

In accordance with Federal regulation, pregnant women are afforded preference with regard to access to treatment services funded by the Commission.
